instantaneous Love-Stroke,

The Boston Budget tells a story OF

and throwing it about his neck

artist" BY this time the young lady
had nearly reached Elm street, where
she halted moment to look at an.

by the tall young minister. His pre-
possessing appearance evidently inter-
ested her, although both parties were
total strangers, and they walked slowly
down toward the North End, convers-
ing like old acqunintances. He re-
ceived permission to call on her, and

 The names of the four captured men are J. T. Blunt, Dick Johnson. Joseph Brooks, and L, NJ. Sheehsm. They were brought in last night and lodged in the ooanty Jail.
 As to the probable guilt of the men, the officers are very reticent, but evI- dently they are figuring on "dead sure thing" A gentleman. however. a resi- dent of Lordsbury, who came in on the sGme train, and who knows the four men. thinks the officers wIde of the mark if they arrested the men for com piicity ID tho recent train hold-up.

Immense Gold Discovery.

CLillson brothers. of Anaheim, who made grand discovery of gold and silver in Arizona a few years ago and sold their mine at a round sum, have been for long time prospecting in the San Jscln.o mountains, about ninety miles east of Los Angeles, aud have dis- covered a mammoth gold mine that ap- pears to them to eclipse any gold dis covery ever made ID the world. Being mining men they did not shout at their first surface discoveries, but went to work in earnest to ascertain the quality of the rock beneath the surface They accordingly sunk a shaft forty feet deep and found the rock richer in gold as they proceeded downwards. They call the rock worth SEQ per ton, while the Grass Valley rock pays at S7OO per ton. Some samples which they brought to town yesterday were msrvelously rich, going 2S00 per ton.
 The ledge IS of enormous sIze snd has fallen into the hands of young and en- terprising mmsrs who will push the de- velopment of it as fast as men and ma chInery can doit. A stamp mill TIll be erected as soon es possible end the work of reduction go merrily on. Tbe mountains are well timbered and water ed, SO that no delay may occur for lack of fuel and water. The mine may be reached from the San Gorgonia station, on the Southern Pacific rBilsay, or from Ferris station, on the California south err, from which place it is about forty miles.

Arizona Timber,

A great many people imagine that Arizona IS treeless region, but in this they are mistaken, for probably there is no better timbered country in the west than Tn this territory. It boasts of one forest, mostly in YsvapsI county, equal in eItent to the area of New Jersey and Delaware. It is POO miles ID length and it's average width IS fifty miles, or sbout 400, GOO acres. It has been truthfully asserted that outside of the piLeries of Michigan, Wisconsin and Washington Territory, there are few parts of the United States that can boast of sush an extensive body of timber. The timber of this Territory makes excellent lum- Der and great deal of It is shipped out of its borders to the Ssates, and now that shipping facilities are being lD- creased, the demand for iour products of the forest will undoubtedly greatly in- cresse.-Ex.

.- The PoIR Homestead.i

The Polk homestead is a large, roomy, two story brick fronting on Union and Vine streets, with ample grounds about it, modestly and tastefully ornamented with shrubbery and flowers. On the fronts rise immense wooden columns, Ap- bearing like stone at lithe distance, sup porting verandas which spring out from the caves. The windows are all old fashioned, as Is everything else about the house. Within are broad halls and stair ways, and great square rooms filled with antique and rich furniture. Nearly all the surrounding houses are of modern architecture, and in striking contrast with the old mansion, every nook and corner and angle of which are full of the foot prints of Father Time.
 In the middle of the Qusdrangular slope that lies next Vine street is the tomb of the tenth president, of plain granite. with a square shaft rising few feet. the whole capped with the same, material resting upon four plain graaite pillars. The canopy, on its front, next the street, bears the simple inscription: ''James K. Polk, tenth president of the United States; born November 2, 1795; died June 15, 1S49."
 On the shaft above the crypt is chiseled an epitOme of his public career, from which we learn that he was a member of the Tennessee legislature, governor of the state member of congress, chairman of its most important committees, speaker of the house of representatives, and presi- dent of the United States Cor.

Killing of Fl MaehO.

The first victim of the fiesta" fell about noon tune yesterday. in the per son of Jesus Leon, better known to the community and to the officers of the law in particular, as Fl Macho. His slayer is Filomeno Ruiz, a well-known Meyer street barber.
 At thej time of the killing Rulz was engaged iu dealing monte at table ID the summer house Of Csrrillos gardens. Leon, somewhat under the influence ot hquor, entered and began to play. He placed half dollar 'in the door. winch, | D case be won, would net him half she amount bet. and ID case of loss he woulc be out a like figure. He won and was paid & quarter, but contrary to the rules of the game, be demanded fifty cents, the full amount of his money on the table RuiE disputed his claim whereupon Fl Mscho spatched the amount and was promptly knocked down by RuiI with 6 chair. Fl Mscho, hastily recovering himself. sprsng at huIz. The latter then drew revolver and El Mscho seeing this, evidently turned to run, but too late to save his ilte, as h1lz fired. The bullet struck him ID the left side towards the back, entered between the eight and ninth ii5s and lodged n similar position on the opposite side, without coming through, Fl Macho fell, and died ID few minutes.
 Ruiz. accompanied by MT. Leopoldo Carrillo, walked to the county jail and surrendered himself to the authorities, who locked him up pending Hn exsmi- nation, which will take place before Jus tice Meyer tomorrow about 10 o'clock a. m.
 Yesterday afternoon Drs. Handy and Adler made a post mortem examins- tion. The bullet in passing through had cut the sorta, had gone through the liver and lodged as above stated. This morning an inquest wGs held, Judge Meyer acting coroner. After hearing the testimony the jury brought ID a verdict in accordance with the facts above stated.
 Fl Maoho is about 35 years of age and has the reputation of being a most mo- torious character. In Sonora he IS es- pecially known as such. It is said Of him that he once stabbed his wife with a knife, and at another time he struck her with a macheto cutting her severely. He is also credited with putting knife fin 6 ohIld's mouth and cutting open one o' its cheeks because It offended him. These doings are said to have taken place in Altar, Sonora, where be once lived. In Hermosillo he was arrested for some violation of the law. was taken before the prefect, who WAS obliged to order him bucked and gagged to stop the flow of abuse and defiance which Mscbo poured upon him.
 Two years ago he was arrested here as the supposed murderer of a woman in the BsrrIo Libre, but as the charge could not be proven he WAS hber- sted, His mother resides in Tucson.
 Ruiz, the slayer of Fl Mscho, has the reputation of being 8 pesceable and in | dustrious man, working both ss barber and shoemaker. Fl Macho appears to have no friends. especially among the officers of the law, by whom he was known as a hard case, but this did not justify his killing by Ruiz for quarter, the amount ID dispute.
